Preparation
Reading text
Tips
1. You don't need to write complete sentences for text messages.
2. Use abbreviations like LMK (= let me know) or use emojis to save time writing.
3. You don't need to use full stops (.) at the end of messages.
4. Say how many minutes you think you'll need, e.g. I'm running 10 minutes late.
5. It’s good to say sorry and sorry again, but you don't need to say sorry in every message.

I tried hard to be on time . Sometime when I have date with my boyfriend. I kind of 10 or 15 minutes late.

I'm used to going to appointment ahead of time, which may be five or ten mins. That is because we can't predict what will happen on the way to date. So, in order not to be late, it is safe to empty out some time for the buffer of unknown accident.
I think that ten minute should be consider to be late.

How many minutes is ‘late’ for you?- Well...when meeting somebody, 5 -10 minutes delay is acceptable,15 minutes delay makes me feel uneasy, and 20-30 minutes delay makes me feel irritated!

I´m usually on time. For me, 5 minutes already is late. I think that to be on time reflects respect for the other people.
